How to Reach

There are no direct flights from India to the Philippines. Travelers from Delhi, Mumbai, or Bangalore must take a connecting flight via Southeast Asian hubs like Bangkok (Thai Airways), Kuala Lumpur (AirAsia/Malaysia Airlines), Singapore (Singapore Airlines), or Ho Chi Minh City (VietJet). The total travel time ranges from 9 to 14 hours depending on the layover. Flights usually land at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) in Manila or Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB). Round-trip flights cost between ₹25,000 and ₹40,000. For group trips focusing on Palawan or Boracay, flying into Manila is better, while Cebu is the gateway for the Visayas region (Bohol, Moalboal, Siargao).

FAQs

Do Indians need a visa for the Philippines?

Yes, Indians need a visa. However, if you have a valid AJACSSUK (US, Japan, Australia, Canada, Schengen, Singapore, UK) visa, you can get a 14-day visa-free entry upon arrival.

Is it easy to find vegetarian food?

Honestly, no. Filipino cuisine is heavily reliant on pork, chicken, and seafood. Vegetarians should carry ready-to-eat meals (like Haldirams), snacks, and rely on global cuisine (pizzas/pastas) in tourist areas.

Should we choose El Nido or Coron?

Do both if you have 10 days. If forced to choose: El Nido is better for beaches, lagoons, and nightlife. Coron is better for shipwreck diving, dramatic cliffs, and clear lakes.

How much cash should I carry?

Carry plenty of Philippine Pesos (PHP). Convert INR to USD in India, then USD to PHP in Manila. ATMs on islands like El Nido often run out of cash, and card machines frequently fail due to bad Wi-Fi.

Is the Philippines safe for Indian travelers?

Yes, very safe. Locals are incredibly friendly and hospitable. Just practice standard tourist safety: watch out for pickpockets in Manila and don't leave valuables unattended on the beach.

Which SIM card is best for tourists?

Globe or Smart. Buy a tourist SIM at the Manila or Cebu airport. However, be prepared for dead zones on smaller islands and during boat trips.

How many days do we need for a group trip?

Minimum 8-10 days. Travel between islands takes up a lot of time (domestic flights + ferries + tricycles), so don't cram too many destinations into a short trip.

Are there direct flights from India?

No direct flights currently. You will have to layover in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, or Vietnam before flying into Manila (MNL) or Cebu (CEB).
